Supplies:
Wire wreath form
Scarf
2.5” wide wired burlap
Assorted lengths and patterns of 2.5” wide wired ribbons
Matching pick
Large Bowdabra
Bowdabra Bow Wire

Instructions:
First, wrap the wreath form with burlap ribbon all around. Now, wrap the scarf from the top down to the bottom and attach it with some hot glue. Next, make the bow. Cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire and fold it in half. Place it in the Bowdabra, and you will have a loop on one side and two loose wires on the other side. This will be your slipknot.
Now, add the tails of the snowflake ribbon. Fold them in half to find the center and then place them in the Bowdabra. Alternate the green and red snowflake ribbon.
Next, using the green snowflake ribbon, make a multi-loop twist and fold bow, Scrunch in the ribbon, then bring the ribbon across and scrunch down, twist, and repeat. Continue making loops back and forth, twisting and scrunching down into the Bowdabra. Make sure the wrong sides are always on the inside of the bow. Repeat this step with the red snowflake ribbon, making the loops just a little bit smaller on this bow.
Add a matching pick. Now, scrunch everything down with the Bowdabra wand. Then, insert the loose wires through the loop and pull tight while the bow is still in the Bowdabra. Then, remove the bow from the Bowdabra, separate the ends, turn to the back, and tie a knot. Tie a double knot for extra security. Shape and arrange the bow. Use the excess wire to tie the bow onto the prepared wreath.

You have an amazing and super-easy wreath hack for a gorgeous home decor piece.
